Imagine waking up to discover you've won a life-changing $80 million! That's exactly what happened to one lucky Aussie in Powerball draw #1552. But here's where it gets controversial... we don't know who this person is yet!
The winner, a mystery person, matched all seven winning numbers and the Powerball, beating odds of 1 in 134 million. Lotterywest confirmed the winner is not from Western Australia, leaving the rest of the country guessing.
And while we celebrate this massive win, let's not forget the other lucky ticketholders. Two WA players scored over $100k each in division two, and 139 players, including 20 West Aussies, won a substantial sum in division three.
The winning numbers were 20, 30, 21, 18, 11, 14, and 12, with the Powerball being 7. This incredible Powerball win follows a series of big WA victories in January.
A couple from Mt Pleasant became millionaires after their Saturday ticket, purchased from Garden City Lottery Centre, won them $1.6 million. And an even larger prize went to a Pilbara grandfather, who took home a massive $10 million from the $20 million Powerball draw on January 8.
